From a Certain Distance

Neville

From a Certain Distance

 

Her beauty

From a distance

Was comparable with

The setting of the sun

 

Withdrawn

And going down

On me yet available

To all and each and everyone

    Beauty from a distnace can be so magnificent and from a distance IS available to all.

  • Fay Slimm.

    Short, pithy and a sure masterclass in telling so much with such paucity of words - - - she of the widely available beauty should read this and wisely digest its meaning........ great read Nev.

    • Neville

      thank you Fay for your well reasoned and encouraging words... N

      A fine write N. You heard my singing from a distance? Preferably 11,000 miles away, or however far away Australia is?! heehee.

      • Neville

        maybe even further.... cheers.. N

          Ohh \'Fly me to the moon\' *sings*. It\'s said some of us were already on the moon, to greet the astronauts 50 years ago. heehee.

          • orchidee

                  Great idea is this one, Nevile. Something fishy going on though I beleive....

                  • Neville

                    Thank you Kevin for taking a peek and considering these words of mine, Neville

                    • kevin browne

                      You're very welcome, my friend..

                    • dusk arising

                      Ho ho ho, "more tea vicar?"

                      Sometimes it's best to appreciate the beauty from a safe distance as in Tigeress. Alluring beauty but oh those claws.

                      You are a fine artist of the word with this cleverly woven double meaning.

                      • Neville

                        Why thank you kindly kind sir but I'm not sure what you mean by double meaning...... 🙂

                        • dusk arising

                          Well there are those among us who may see a sunset dontcha know. Not that i would dare to suggest such a gutter interpretation myself.

                          • Neville

                            Got me both smilin and a larfin..... 🙂 cheers DA

                                The mind from which they came is yours
                                The mind that enticed to decode is mine
                                Then how can I be accused of being dirty!!

                                • Neville
